Stern section, port side gangway, Assistant Engineer quarters. Approx depth 315 feet. Those brown specks on the otherwise clean paint are zebra mussles. We were surprised to see them at these depths.

Re:First Dives Carl D. Bradley Stern
Very cool!

Maybe you can give some specific's- like bottom times, deco times, gases used, back up's carried, ect.

I heard that you guys carried out some pretty long bottom times while you were there, and didn't just bounce dive it. I guess that must be the case from all of the nice footage that you got.
